Just smol update to show still alive.
Added a little prompt to the reload function (hopefully is not needed going forward, but still), to avoid someone accidentally resetting the game and losing all progress ; basic saving/loading is done now, so even that won't be too much of an issue.
But, this made me have to figure out how to do these prompts, because all of it is generic, but the behaviour of what the game has to do if you press Yes or No, changes drastically depending on context, like if you're just activating a lever, or switch, maybe saving, or quitting the game, so I had to come up with a way so only the right choice applies.
On other things, I think I'll also use these window boxes for chibi's dialogue during sexy times. At first I though I was being cheeky by reutilizing the dmg number pop ups to show her dialogue, but one time during test, I realize that it conflicts with status changes, like when she gets horny, and the notification pop ups, it looked like she was saying horny, which felt awkward, so a classic chat window would be better.
Only issue with this, is where to put it, it already feels like the player has to look at too many things while in sexy times, you have to look a the animation, first and foremost, then you have to look at the escape/submit gauges, but also look at your actual health, and then adding the dialogue window seems a bit too crowed.
Oh and also, during test, of course I noted a whole bunch of quotes that don't match with was is happening, which was a problem in old shitty spacEscape too, and it only dawned on me now that aside from having dialogue sets for each arousal state, I also need set for each stage of sexy times, like the initial grab, the struggle face, the sex, and lastly cumming and maybe aftermatch.
That's all for now.
